 Southwest Florida Farmers Markets

This Southwest Florida Farmers Markets Guide has been updated for the 2019 - 2020 local farmers market schedule.

My favorite part of Fall in Southwest Florida is that our local farmer's markets start to open up.

I've gathered all the information you will need to find the Southwest Florida Farmers Markets schedules for 2019-2020 season.

If you know of a local S.W. Florida Farmers Market not on my list email the details to flouronymface@gmail.com

I've listed the information for most farmers markets in the Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Bonita Springs, Naples and Sanibel Island area for 2019-2020 season.

As I find new locations I will update this post. Be sure to Pin or bookmark this post so you can stay up to date with all the Southwest Florida Farmers Markets.

Dates and times updated for the 2019-2020 Farmer's Market season

Here in Southwest Florida Fall is the beginning our of farmer's market season unlike most other areas of the country.

During the hot summer months when most of the country is enjoying shopping Farmer's Markets for fresh local produce I have to sit back and contend myself with the produce available at the grocery store.

Mind you there are a few local farmer's markets that are open in the Fort Myers and South West, Florida area year round but it is just too darn hot to go out and walk in the open air markets during the summer.

Fresh Florida Produce

Fresh Florida produce is available all year long but during the winter growing season, those same fruits and vegetables are at their best during the warm winter growing season here in Florida.

Strawberries, pole beans, and tomatoes are just a few of the winter crops we enjoy fresh from the vine.

More fresh produce by the month

For a monthly list of Florida crops that are in season, you can check out my monthly fresh Florida produce list with recipes below.
